Moved to Monday

Here's another idea.... don't wait untill the last minute to make a change, when you heard about the storm all week long.

Or take your stadium off the list of not able to host playoff games.

 

6-10 inches of snow and 25 mph winds. Explain to me again why this game couldn’t be played???

 

NOT SNOWING AT THE STADIUM RIGHT NOW
PINCHE MADRES

 

Who you calling stoopid

 

You don’t have to be there when you go against Tomlin

 

This! Some just don't understand Public Safety. It's not only the Governor but also the NFL, the Steelers and Bills agreed with the decision.

 

Weather channel is showing a view from inside Highmark Stadium. From the goalpost, you can make out a truck at the 20 yard line, but just barely.

 

Currently
NO SNOW at stadium with bands dissipating on the lake.

 

When nfl saw weather forecast. They should have just moved game to Detroit. SI article says Monday game in jeopardy too. Throw in the towel and move game to indoors

 

What is completely asinine is the Steelers having to fly in today. BS
If the NFL is about safety. BS
This game could have been played today.

 

When I was a kid 5 to 12 inch of snow was perfect, sled riding, snow forts, hell. football in snow! lol, now add those winds and its a total different story. It just is not worth the risk being out there, especially 70 to 80 thousand people clogging the roadways in already horrible conditions.

 

Can the Steelers still fly with the travel ban still in place?

 

Good question. There could be exceptions.


No Fly Zone! LOL

 

The good news is that, since the merger, the Steelers are 6-1 in postponed games, the only loss being a game that was postponed (Washington from Sunday to Monday) because the previous game (Baltimore, from Thanksgiving night to Wednesday) was postponed. So as long as the game doesn't get postponed to Tuesday, and the Steelers get moved to Monday night for round two, we should be okay.
And for those of you who long for the "good old days", where men were men and sheep were scared and football was played in any weather, prior to the merger the Steelers had 17 games postponed. So in 37 years they had 17 games postponed, and in the last 53 years they've had 7, 4 of which were due to covid in 2020.

 

Sounds like a Matt Canada offense

 

That looks like it would be fun to slide down

 

I only did that once and my wife was promptly diagnosed with cancer

Instead of going to Costa Rica we went to Chemo Therapy

Although I got my money back I’ve never bought the insurance again

Wife is ok 10 years now

(note to anyone who buys the trip insurance I got all of my money back and it was fairly quick and easy I just had to provide proof of her illness)

 

No doubt. Men are so much tougher today! Skinny jeans and instagram profiles prove it.

 

Dude has me laughing

 

6-10 inches of snow and 25 mph winds

 

Is it snowing in Buffalo now

 

OMG
flurries at stadium currently

If you look a little further west the snow is ending

 

Don't think they had a choice. If a band forms over the area for a while it would be disaster getting people out. For the risk of a silly football game?

The band is over the area now and for the next several hours. I'm ok watching the game tomorrow

 

Because there's a travel ban across the city.
